Head Coach Gareth Baber says their win in Cape Town is now behind them and they need to focus on the next leg of the series.

“I want to keep 20 to 25 players progressing as much as you can. You take injuries during the season. It’s a long season, there’s some fatigue in some of the players that might catch up with them during the years. But I wanna keep pushing new players into the squad and it keeps everybody competitive. You might very well see some new players but I can’t promise that.”

The 7s Gladiators will be camping from tomorrow till Friday in Suva.

Meanwhile, Fiji is pooled with Argentina, Australia and Wales in the Hamilton leg which will be held on the 26th and 27th of this month.
